Canadian Mental Health Association/peel Branch is a charitable organization based in Brampton, Ontario, classified by the CRA under core health care.

In its fiscal year ending March 31, 2024, it reported $29.5M in revenue and $29.3M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 92% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 10 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $381K.
